"I have purchased Patty's Craftsy class Improve Your Knitting and it is one of the best knitting classes I have ever taken. I learned so much about techni

que, the hows and whys of various knitting styles and the physics of knitting. Taking an in person class would be a wonderful experience! A real hands on opportunity to get her insight on an individual level. If I lived close enough I would do it in a heartbeat!"

"I took two classes with Patty at Stitches Texas. She is the BEST! Patty's classes were fun and informative. I took Patty's Knitting Bag of Tricks and L

earning to Knit & Purl Backwards and came away feeling I had more than gotten my money's worth in her classes. She's a definite repeat for me."

"I took Patty's Bag of Tricks class at Stitches Texas in September 2015 and was blown away, not only by the content, but by her generous and engaging style

of instruction. She made her tricks seem like common knitting sense, not some big mystery, so the class was a series of "Oh, yeah!" moments. I'll definitely be taking her other classes in whatever format they're offered."

Marcel tutored my 6 year old daughter in German. He is very friendly and likable, and she enjoyed working with him right away! He even played "Filly's" with her (a German My Little Pony toy!" He is very patient and makes learning fun. He was punctual and also flexible. We had a great experience working with Marcel!

I have taken one on one lessons from Milad for almost a year and I have mastered so many techniques that I never dreamed I would be able to do. Milad is very patient, has amazing skills, is a wonderful teacher, and has given me so much confidence in my jewelry making abilities. He has elevated my skills exponentially. Nothing compares to the experience of learning privately from a master metalsmith and jewelry designer. Milad's lessons are a bargain when you realize that you are learning how to make jewelry from a professional jeweler who will devote his full attention to you and make sure that what you make is exceptional. I can't recommend Milad enough.
